Launches three celebrity-packed new shows for the month of October
EPIC Channel, continues to bring to its audiences
select, and eclectic offerings in the infotainment genre. For October, its
three propositions include gripping travel stories in ‘The Road Less
Travelled’; a story of India told like no other by Sadhguru in ‘Bharat – The
Rhythm Of A Nation with Sadhguru’ and a look into the life, times, and careers
of some of India’s most talented in ‘The Creative Indians’.
‘The Road Less Travelled’ adheres to a seasoned
traveller’s ethic of spontaneity and willingness. Godzilla fame Globetrotter
Jonathan Legg travels across India in search of exotic locations and unusual
experiences, in search of moments not found in the conventional and rutted
route, and often experience the bizarre side of a destination. From exploring
unexplored paths in Mumbai, Kolkata, Orissa, as well as the Himalayas, the host
dives right into the heart of a seemingly crazy, yet fascinating country. The
show will air only on EPIC on 1st October.
‘Bharat- Rhythm Of A Nation with Sadhguru’
explores the story of India, from history to an understanding of culture, and
identity. In this specially curated series of talks, one of the foremost
spiritual thinkers of India - Sadhguru explains what makes India, India. He
discusses the essence, the spirit, of Bharat – the religious, social, economic,
and spiritual core of the country and how they affect and impact every single
person living in the country. He covers myriad subjects, from rivers as
lifelines, to the racial and ethnic identities that make up the population of
the country.
‘The Creative Indians’ is intent, and does a
fantastic job of introducing, showcasing, and attempting to decipher the finest
minds in India in the fields of performing, literary, and liberal arts. From
depicting, and analyzing the creative process of an artist, the show captures
an artists’ characteristic approach to his art form and the skill that defines
his craft. The show features documentaries on A.R.Rahman, Anurag Kashyap, Anita
Dongre, Adhuna & Avan Contractor, amongst others. The 10
episodic series will release on 3rd October.
As a carefully considered exception, and
incremental to it’s pioneering offering as India’s only Hindi language
infotainment channel, these shows will be offered in English. Akul Tripathi,
Content and Programming head, EPIC Channel said, "EPIC’s vision is to be a
platform for the best infotainment of, for, and by India. We endeavour to
showcase India in all its diversity, and believe that like it’s people its
stories come in several languages. With one of the biggest English language
speaking populations in the world, dispersed across the country, it would be a
disservice to the vision, if we were to abandon great stories on basis of
language. And some stories are best told in the language they were made in. We
are carefully selecting such stories that we will present through an English
slot Mon-Wed at 10:30 pm and are confident that the freshness it brings
will add value, perspective, and be a compelling incremental proposition to the
EPIC library.”
